"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS The front passenger seat, the two rear side seats (saloon and 206 SW)and the one third section of the rearseat (206 RC) are fitted with ISOFIX
mountings . These are two rings
located between the seat back andthe seat cushion. The ISOFIX child seats are fitted
with two locks which are secured
easily on these rings. All this guar-antees reliable, safe and fast fitting. The ISOFIX child seat approved for
PEUGEOT vehicles and sold by
PEUGEOT dealers is the
Isofix
KIDDY* child seat. It can be fitted in
the "rear facing" position from birthto 13 kg and in the "forwards facing"position from 9 to 18 kg. In the front, in the "rear facing" posi- tion, the front passenger seat mustbe moved as far forward as possibleso that the body of the child seat isin contact with or as close as possi-ble to the fascia.
In the rear, in the "forwards facing"
position, in the saloon and 206 SW,it is imperative that the front passen-ger seat is in the mid-way position
on the runner, seat back upright. Inthe 206 RC, the body of the childseat must be in the most uprightposition. Refer to the child seat'sinstallation guide for this setting. In the rear, in the "rear facing" posi-tion, the body of the child seat mustbe in contact with the back of thecorresponding front seat. This seat can also be used on seats not fitted with ISOFIX mountings. Inthis case it is compulsory to attach itto the vehicle's seat by means of thethree-point seat belt for both the"rear facing" and "forwards facing"positions. Refer to the "Summary table for fitting child seats".
When the ISOFIX KIDDY seat is fitted in the "rear facing" positionon the front passenger seat, it isessential to disarm the passengerair bag.
